Bourne Free 2026 (Bournemouth Pride) moves to a new home at Meyrick Park across Friday 10 to Sunday 12 July, with the festival split into three distinct days. Friday opens with an over-18s opening party, Saturday brings the parade and the main festival programme, and Sunday is a family day designed to be welcoming for parents, kids and intergenerational visitors.
Meyrick Park sits to the north of Bournemouth town centre, offering a green space large enough for the festival's stages, community zones and family programming. The 2026 line-up has not yet been confirmed. Expect a programme that spans main stage live music, drag and cabaret, dance arena, community stalls and family-friendly activity across the three days, with Bournemouth's town centre and seafront venues running their own Pride programming through the weekend.
Friday and Saturday are ticketed via the official site. Sunday family day is free but requires advance booking. The split-day format is designed to balance the over-18s late-night programming with a clearly family-friendly Sunday. Check the Bourne Free website for the confirmed line-up, ticket details, parade route and accessibility info.
